SeaMonkey may be an alternative. It's closer to what I want than Firefox.
Options have a maintenance cost. Pulseaudio is the current Linux audio stack, like plain ALSA was before when it replaced OSS.
replyThe current one is PipeWire (it's much better)
replyBut PulseAudio API is still the "standard".
replyTrue, but the bad outcomes are mostly a thing of the past. PipeWire has better reliability, lower CPU usage, and lower latency.
replyHey, we have the evil Microsoft empire :) Or the Apple alternative.
replyMaintaining a browser engine including patching the latest vulnerabilities when someone points Mythos at your code is a really hard problem, my feeling is you need a certain size of organization and funding as your table stakes.
Someone should convince the EU to look into funding a new browser, maybe.
What if the EU bought some big chunk of Mozilla, something like Mozilla EU, and then ran it? Would the US then cry out against EU buying US companies and start to fund Mozilla?
replyAmerican here. We'd bitch, piss, and moan about the EU buying US companies. We wouldn't fund Firefox though, we'd be more likely to give a huge government contract to facebook to reskin chrome or some other stupid shit.
replyServo [0] is EU funded via NLnet. You can build a browser from that.
